FAQs
Are the New Balance 950s unisex?
Yes, the 950 series is designed as a unisex silhouette suitable for all genders.
How do I determine my size?
The trainers follow standard UK adult sizing. We recommend ordering your usual size, noting that the toe box is designed to be slightly roomier.
Can these be machine washed?
No, machine washing can damage the structural integrity and the wool material of the trainers. Spot cleaning by hand is highly recommended.
Are these suitable for basketball?
While they are inspired by 1980s basketball culture, they are lifestyle trainers and are not recommended for competitive court use.
What is the primary material used?
The trainers utilize wool as a primary material for the upper, giving them a distinct look and feel.
How should I store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the white material from yellowing and to protect the wool.
Troubleshooting
Visible dust or lint on the wool surface
Use a lint roller or a garment brush specifically designed for wool to gently lift debris.
Creasing at the front of the shoe
Insert wooden or plastic shoe trees when not in use to help the trainers maintain their shape.
Staining on the white upper
Use a specialized sneaker cleaner safe for natural fibers, or consult a professional shoe care service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these trainers feature wool components, standard shoe cleaning methods may be too harsh. To maintain the condition of your New Balance 950s, avoid submerging them in water. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dirt or dust. For spills, blot with a clean, slightly damp cloth—do not rub, as this can damage the wool fibers. Ensure they are kept away from direct heat sources when drying, as heat can cause the material to warp or shrink. For sizing, these are standard UK adult sizes; if you plan to wear thick winter socks, consider if your standard size provides enough room given the intentional design of the toe box.
